Looking at the picture of the Mini out of the water there is a Large Dark "SPOT" about a 1/3 of the way aft. This would NOT be a place where you would put a thruster. When this boat was built..thrusters were not commom....if they existed at all. Thrusters are usually in the BOW..hence the term Bow Thruster. They Walk the bow to port or starboard during docking.

SO: Has anyone actually SEEN the Thrust Tunnel..looking Clear Through the hull to the other side..?? Just wondering. NB
